TV signage, devices & asset care

What it is

This is the physical side of the venue: the TVs on the wall, the kitchen screens and printers, and every piece of equipment you own. Signage playlists run your screens from admin, the asset register knows every fridge and fryer, and a QR label on each one lets anyone report a fault in thirty seconds.

What problem it solves

Menu screens running off USB sticks go stale the day after they're loaded. And equipment faults get reported verbally — "the walk-in's making a noise" — then forgotten until it dies on a Saturday. Both problems are record-keeping problems, and both disappear when the screens and the equipment live in the same system as everything else.

How it works

TV signage:

1. Register each display in admin — it gets its own device token and screen number — then build its playlist from a rich set of content types: menu boards, single-item features, images, video, YouTube, promotions, upcoming events, wait times and more, each with its own display duration.

2. Schedule playlists by daypart — a breakfast board in the morning, the dinner promotion at night — and preview what's playing now from admin. The TV itself just opens its player link and rotates the playlist live; a display can also run as a live order-ready board for pickup counters.

Kitchen hardware:

3. The hardware page sets up kitchen display stations, printers and the routing rules that decide which items go to which station or printer.

Assets and maintenance:

4. The asset register lists every piece of equipment with its category, location and status — active, in repair, retired or lost — plus maintenance schedules and open work orders at a glance.

5. Print a QR label for every asset straight from the browser and stick it on the equipment. Anyone who spots a problem scans the label and lands on a public fault-report form with the asset already filled in — a short description and an optional name and phone number is all it takes.

6. Every report becomes a work order: open, in progress, awaiting a part, completed or cancelled, with a priority, an assignee, due dates, costs and parts used — so the fix has an owner and a paper trail.

Everything inside the system

• TV signage with per-screen playlists, eleven content types, dayparted schedules and a live now-playing preview.
• Order-ready board mode for pickup counters.
• Kitchen hardware setup: display stations, printers and routing rules.
• Asset register with statuses, locations, categories and maintenance schedules.
• Printable QR labels and a public fault-report form with spam protection.
• Work orders with statuses, priorities, assignees, costs and parts tracking.

This is built into NexDine — there is no separate signage service or maintenance tool to buy. Your TVs run a web player, your labels print from the browser, and every fault report lands in the same admin your team already uses.
